We have public records with name, address and phone number where i live. If you don’t want to be searchable in this registry, you just login to citizens self-service (or go to townhall if you don’t want to/can’t do it yourself online) and select that you want “secret address”, and your info is purged from the list. No need to go through weird and semi-sketchy third parties to get it done. I’m not sure how other EU countries deal with this.
In sweden, those records are public and nothing you can do about as a swedish citizen. What goes in the rest of the EU I don’t know.
What happens if you, say, suspect you may be stalked?
Get a gun, I guess. The swedes manufacturer more guns per capita than any country in the world.
